Apply Now, and Save the Federation: Team of Backup Amalgamation Gamers

[cannedpeahes]

If you've been keeping up on the scrim team thread, then you're probably aware that since the list Kor chose was limited to nine or ten or fiddyleven-hundred people, there were a lot of us that applied and tried out that aren't on that team. Not a decision I'd challenge, but I and several other people know that there are enough phenomenal players left on these forums to make two or even three three potent scrim teams. The rest of you just suck. ;D

So, to that end I'm opening up applications for a second team. Now, just to clarify, we aren't BAL-SACKs, so this team won't operate exactly the same way as Kor's. But applications should follow the same way.

Tell me what you're great at, what you're okay at, and what you suck at. Also, I need to know when you're available to play. Be prepared to have an open schedule if you're going to play; if you're going to try out, I'm probably going to be equally as sadistic as Kor. I'll post a notice when there's a week to go until tryouts, and then on the day of tryouts we can lock a server and message everyone who applied with the password. Let's get a full roster, amirite?

Edit: This thread is for APPLICATIONS only. You can discuss the notion of the team in several other threads. Once we get a fairly large application roster we're still going to wait a bit to see if Kor needs to reorganize his team with alternates, and then we'll work on ours. KTHXBAI.

Im available just about all the time (school during the day in the fall). I'm good at putting sentries in annoying, hard to reach places, and knowing the right times to fall back. Im a damn good pyro too, but according to most people that doesn't take much skill anymore. If neither of those 2 are available than I can play a good medic.

I would say pyro takes about much skill as a soldier now... It's just mostly soldiers being butt-hurt from not being able to kill a pyro in 99% of the encounters...

P.S. I'm a damn good pyro as well but I think I'll be working more on building up the EU side of brbu

Not really. It's not BRBuJ perse, just another competitive team. I think if you read the acronym you'll grasp it.

Of course, Geoff. It isn't really BRBuJ, but everybody has more than bought in, IMHO.

Forgot to say, don't expect me to be available on weekends. I tend to have work on weekends (Friday through Sunday nights), weekdays are a rarity.
